What are your hobbies?
Cooking. I enjoy farm-style cooking for family and friends in generally large groups. I also
enjoy woodworking, cabinet making, building structures and building furniture which my
wife designs. She has no problem helping me keep my skills
current.
What do you plan to do when you retire?
I spent 20 years in the U.S. Coast Guard and looked forward
to retirement which lasted 7 months. I don’t view retirement
as non-working, so I might go back and teach at a college
or make toys for needy children. Dressing up as a clown (not
the scary kind) to bring laughter to kids at hospitals is some-
thing I always thought of doing, and from the looks of it, I
might have my granddaughter as a sidekick.
